Cranberries!!! Greens!!! Leeks!!

Wandering back from Burdick's new shop on 20th Street near Fifth, I thought I'd check to see who actually showed up in the Greenmarket today and was pleasantly surprised to find that there were plenty of stands there, including Windfall, Mountain Sweet Berry, Three Corner Field Farm, Breezy Hill (they still have cranberries!), Paffenroth, Cato(cheese), Oak Grove, Ronnybrook, and D'Attolico. There certainly are plenty of apples, cider, potatoes, and other winter goodies, not to mention Shushan with tomatoes and greens! I stocked up on vegetables for soups from Paffenroth and hovered over Mountain Sweet Berries' lovely little potatoes for a while, but am recovering from the holiday indulgences, so I passed up cheeses and butters for this week. No telling what mischief I'll get into next Wednesday and Saturday!
